Default Tongue twisters!

Here are some..with translations!

(practise r and s)
Ärrän kierrän ympäri orren, ässän pistän taskuun.
(The letter 'r' I wrap around a wooden pole, the letter 's' I put in my pocket.)

Vihdoin vihdoin vihdoin.
(Finally I slapped myself with birch-switches.)

yksikseskös istuskelet, itsekseskös yskiskelet?
(Are you sitting all alone, coughing by yourself?)

Kärpänen sanoi kärpäselle, tuu kattoon kattoon kun kaveri tapettiin tapettiin!
(Say a fly to a fly, look there on the wall is your buddy is sticking on the wall and is dead.)

Tuulan ja Tuulin tuulinen tuuli tuulee talvella täällä ja tuolla.
(The windy wind of Tuula and Tuuli blows in the winter here and there.)
